Photons @ HUA

Description

Photons@HUA is part of the Department of Informatics and Telematics and was founded in 2008. Initially the lab was used for educational purposes, teaching undergraduate students the fundamental of electronic circuits. It has since grown to a well-equipped, state-of-the-art laboratory which serves a dual role: it trains the undergraduate and post-graduate students of the department in the fields of electronics, photonics and telecommunications while attempts to carry out cutting-edge research in the fields above and related to the research orientation of the department.

The funding for the lab came from donations of the private sector, the University’s budget, the National Strategic Reference Framework (NSRF) and various R&D projects. The lab is housed at the second floor of the Department of Informatics and Telematics building.

Its staff consists of two faculty members, Dr. Thomas Kamalakis and Dr. Christos Michalakelis a senior staff member, Dr. Vasilis Dakakas and two post-doc researchers, Dr. Georgia Dede and Dr. Panagiotis Kanakis. It has currently enrolled four PhD students.

The lab’s mission is to:

(a) train the undergraduate and post-graduate students of the department in the fields of electronics, photonics and telecommunications.

(b) carry out cutting-edge research in the fields above and related to the research orientation of the department
